81. And they say: (It is) obedience; but when they have
gone forth from thee a party of them spend the night in planning other than
what thou sayest. And Allah recordeth what they plan by night. So
ignore them and put thy trust in Allah. And Allah is Sufficient as
Trustee.

Commentary
Taa-‘atun - (obedience), if after
hearing any order from some, it is said! Taa-‘atun, it will be meant: I agreed, I admitted or I
believed.
bayyatun - this
word has come out from bayaat, which means “night”. Tabayyat means “to work at
night”. Here it aims “asking advice of others at night”.
‘A’-riz - this word is from ‘a’-raaz,
which means “to ignore, to turn away, not to care”. It is a token of
negligence, inattention.
Another artifice of the hypocrites has been narrated in this
verse. When they used to hear the Sayings of the Messenger of Allah Almighty
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), they used to say before him
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), “We have admitted, accepted or
agreed to your entire commands wholeheartedly and our duty is to obey you”. But
when they used to get out from the company of the Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him), then they used to plan secretly at night and
bring to a conclusion that possibly they would never obey the Prophet
‘Muhammad’ (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and oppose him as
far as possible. Their outward and hidden are not equal. They backbite and do
not do that, what they say. If they think that, they would continue deceiving
the Muslims by making apparent lame excuses like this, and digging secretly
their roots, then they are at wrong because this all secret planning (at
nights) is being observed by Allah Almighty. He knows their entire wicked
activities from the beginning to the end. This double-faced conduct of the
hypocrites will not run more ahead and their fraud will be disclosed
positively.
The obedience does not have the meaning that their tongues say,
“Yes Sir, very well and all right”, but their hearts make up the mind to commit
against it. After that; Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon him) is being commanded, “Trust in Allah Almighty. What He
desires to do, does it properly. Neither He needs any help of someone, nor does
He care for any opposite. He is Sufficient to complete all tasks. Believe in
Him”.
After describing the double-faced policy (conspiracies and
artifices) of the Hypocrites, Allah Almighty commanded to the Messenger (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), “You should turn away from them and
put your trust in Allah Almighty; because His Adroitness is Sufficient. Neither
you are needy of anybody and nor progress of Islam is connected with any person”.
